Bangarraju Review

The film under review was a long time coming. A sequel to the 2016 movie 'Soggade Chinni Nayana', it had to feature Naga Chaitanya as the ultimate legatee and none else....

Veyi Subhamulu Kalugu Neeku Review

The performances are strained, and the conversations about the ghost/with the ghost are incredulous. The second half is driven by an outmoded style of telling a formulaic story....

Atithi Devo Bhava Review

Telugu cinema has been usually interested in straightforward, formulaic, multi-genre films. Romantic thrillers are not its cup of tea....

Senapathi Review

It is said that the story derives its premise from Akira Kurosawa's 'Stray Dog' (1949). The script would have looked organic had the contrivances been thought of in a better way....

Arjuna Phalguna Review

Everything is so convenient. 'Arjuna Phalguna', in the hands of a better director, would have been a raw and rustic crime comedy. But that's not the case here....

Back Door Review

Even at 90 minutes, the film is peppered with more than a couple of songs. The climax offers a sound message. The entire drama revolves around just two characters....

Shyam Singha Roy Review

The run-time is 157 minutes, but one wouldn't have complained even if the climax was a bit stretched. A couple of interesting dialogues here would have made the love story more epic....

Pushpa Review

'Pushpa: The Rise' hits the bull's eye. Allu Arjun's flawless acting, Sukumar's Midas Touch, and the span of the story make it worth a watch....

Maa Oori Polimera Review

The scenes between the two husbands and their respective wives could have been stronger. There is also a red herring, which the screenplay could have avoided without compromising on the thrills....

Lakshya Review

The action sequences don't raise the bar. There is no dynamism in the archery scenes; had there been gravitas in the way they are staged, 'Lakshya' would have been a special experience....

Gamanam Review

The film was expected to engage the audience with a hyperlink screenplay. What is in store in the film is an anthology-type narration that is barely philosophical and definitely not intriguing....

Sky Lab Review

For all the strengths of the technical aspects, the film doesn't feel like a true-blue period film. It was a conscious attempt, to be sure....

Akhanda Review

It would have been better had the romantic track been more real. There should have been a couple of calm interludes in the heavy-duty second half....

Anubhavinchu Raja Review

The premise of the film is primitive. Therefore, the characterization had to be novel. And the rom-com track should have been memorable. The film, however, would have none of it....

Drushyam 2 Review

'Drushyam 2' has a barely watchable first half and a thrilling finale. If you are a second-time watcher, you better stay away. Good performances are a plus....

Ram Asur Review

ఈమధ్య కాలంలో ఏ సినిమా చూసినా అందులో కథ లేక సన్నివేశం ఏదో ఒకటి గతంలో చూసిన సినిమాను గుర్తుకుతెస్తుంది. ఈ విషయంలో ఎవ్వర్నీ తప్పుపడ్డడానికేం లేదు. కథల కొరత అలా ఉంది మరి. ఇలాంటి టైమ్స్ లో కూడా ఓ కొత్త కథను టాలీవుడ్ ఆడియన్స్ కు పరిచయం చేసింది రామ్ అసుర్ (పీనట్ డైమండ్) సినిమా. ...

Missing Review

The film needed more style and less fluff. The cinematography is inconsistent. A single-shot action block was planned, but the makers faced practical difficulties....

Adbhutham Review

Two songs have not been placed intelligently. At the outset, the film makes it clear that it was inspired by sci-fi movies. One feels the genre needed a more ingenious setting to work....

Raja Vikramarka Review

The last 25 minutes of the 135-minute-long film have some substance. But, by then, the drama delivers too many unserious ideas to be taken seriously....

Pushpaka Vimanam Review

The comedy could have been much stronger. The BGM seems to scream that the audience is supposed to laugh. The slapstick comedy is found shallow in a couple of scenes....
